Cheap Classique men's watch expanding bracelet 40 mm

The first thing you notice about this Classique is how the bracelet is made: stainless steel links in a silver tone that stretch to fit, so there is no clasp to fiddle with. It is a round men's watch with a 40 mm silver-tone metal case, a white dial and a quartz movement, and it is also quite inexpensive.

Reading the time

A dial should not make you think, and this one keeps things simple. The white background carries Arabic numerals and black hour markers, so the time reads at a glance, in a meeting or on a crowded train. The display is analogue, with nothing on it that you do not need.

What drives it

Inside is a quartz movement, which keeps steady time without any winding or adjusting. When the battery eventually runs down, a watchmaker can replace it and check the seals while the watch is open. The crystal is mineral glass, which stands up to everyday scratches better than plastic does.

Size and build

At 40 mm across and 9 mm thick, the case sits in a comfortable standard size for a man's wrist and slips easily under a shirt cuff. The strap is 20 mm wide and the total length is 20 cm. Because it expands, you simply slide it over your hand and it settles in place.

On the wrist day to day

The silver finish is easy to pair with other things you own. It looks tidy with office clothes and just as natural with a pair of jeans at the weekend. If you enjoy clean, uncluttered designs, take a look at our minimalist men's watches for similar company.
